Malicious code in chart-data-utils (npm)

Exploitation and risk

CISA KEV lists vulnerabilities known to be exploited. FIRST EPSS estimates the likelihood of exploitation in the next 30 days. An unavailable score does not mean zero risk.

Which CVEs have scores here?

This view includes predictions for CVE identifiers explicitly listed in public NuGet advisories. Microsoft release pages have their own prediction coverage. Check source status for the scope and latest checks.

No exploitation or prediction data is available here for these CVEs. This does not mean they are safe or unlikely to be exploited.

--- _-= Per source details. Do not edit below this line.=-_ ## Source: amazon-inspector (3980b39b1ba77c4c8df0b8e08016a299640a60b6255c1ea8be1883343ec750e9) [email protected] advertises itself as a chart data/color helper library (index.js contains only trivial color utilities), but ships a postinstall.js that runs at npm install time and performs credential harvesting and host reconnaissance. The postinstall shells out via child_process.exec to: (1) collect hostname, whoami/id output, Docker/cgroup indicators, sudo -ln, ps aux, ip addr/route; (2) enumerate process environment variables and grep-filter for KEY|TOKEN|SECRET|CREDENTIAL|NPM_TOKEN|AWS_|AZURE|GCP|GITHUB_TOKEN plus GitHub Actions identity fields (GITHUB_TOKEN, GITHUB_REPOSITORY, GITHUB_ACTOR, RUN_ID); (3) probe cloud instance-metadata endpoints at 169.254.169.254 (AWS), 100.100.100.200 (Aliyun), metadata.google.internal (GCP), metadata.tencentyun.com (Tencent), and an internal host tst.woa.com; (4) base64-encode the collected data and POST/GET it over plain HTTP to the hardcoded Burp Collaborator subdomain pzs5w7ntzhsnepwk564lyfdci3oucl0a.oastify.com. The package name/description are a cover story for a CI credential harvester; Chinese-language comments ("分片回传版") in the postinstall reference tst.woa.com.
